Fundamental science at the intersection of language, mathematics, and neuroscience

This research area is dedicated to fundamental studies accross the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and the arts. It aims not only to expand the possibilities for new discoveries and technological applications but also to pioneer new fields of research.

Advancing sustainability and environmental stewardship

This research area addresses planetary-scale challenges such as climate change and the biodiversity crisis. We aim to build sustainable societies and ecosystems within the limits of environmental resources. We focus on practical actions that extend beyond theoretical studies and finding solutions for global challenges that are grounded in real-world and regional contexts.

Exploring the boundaries of art, music, visuals, and language

This research area focuses on diverse fields that revolve around creativity, such as art, music, and visual design. By developing technologies and methodologies that expand human imagination and enable new forms of expression and experiences, we aim to contribute to the formation of future cultures and their sustainability.

Expanding perception and capability for human body

This research area explores ways to enhance human capabilities through sensory augmentation and robotics. By offering new experiences in vision and touch or developing technologies that complement and extend physical functions, we seek to broaden human potential while also exploring the redefinition of humanity itself.

Harnessing data and information for adaptive systems

Grounded in AI and data analytics, this research area aims to bring intelligence to real-world systems and processes. From a cybernetics perspective, we pursue the extraction of efficient and meaningful information, connecting the results to practical applications in society and industry.

Shaping the future of human-technology integration

This research area focuses on strengthening social systems through technology to create sustainable and harmonious communities. It addresses a wide range of challenges, including urban design, information sharing, and the optimization of decision-making processes. The goal is to propose new forms of collaboration and sustainable societal models.
